Job Informationen ###### Location: Zurich Workload: Full-time Start: By agreement Your tasks:
- You build ML models that predict residual sensor error from observable signals such as temperature, thermal gradients, quadrature amplitude, drive signals and sensor diagnostics.
- You define rigorous validation protocols across unseen thermal profiles and physical sensor units to demonstrate genuine generalisation.
- You benchmark learned approaches against a tuned classical baseline combining per-unit thermal compensation and adaptive Kalman filtering.
- You quantify the observability boundary and identify which errors are predictable and which are not.
- You train and evaluate models offline on sensor characterisation data, separating meaningful physical correlations from artefacts and overfitting.
- You work with FPGA and DSP engineers to translate successful approaches into lightweight models for low-latency embedded deployment.
- You communicate results clearly, including when the evidence shows a classical approach remains the better solution.
Your profile:
- BSc, MSc or PhD in computer science, applied mathematics, applied physics, machine learning or a related technical field
- Strong applied machine learning experience with time-series, regression, sensor or instrumentation data
- Strong Python or MATLAB skills and experience with PyTorch, scikit-learn or equivalent frameworks
- Experience with modest, high-value datasets where validation strategy and data quality matter as much as model architecture
- Strong understanding of model validation, generalisation, overfitting, feature engineering and experimental design
- Enough physics and signal-processing knowledge to judge whether a discovered relationship is physically meaningful
- C/C++ skills highly desirable
- Advantageous: sensor calibration, metrology, inertial sensing, embedded ML deployment, aerospace, defence or robotics experience
